## Summary

The authors propose Consistent Action-Response Execution (CARE), which grounds local control in executable-action-indexed joint human-robot transitions, so that the same executable action simultaneously determines operator response prediction, joint human-robot rollout, and candidate selection. On training and held-out maps, CARE maintains near-saturated performance when the indicated route remains locally passable, and achieves the highest success rate and service availability when the operator can continue but the robot must detour.
